Not so long ago GGPoker was considered to be the new kid on the block, after which there were references to the innovative poker room as the pretender to the throne… Nowadays, with, for example, milestone achievements such as hosting the world record-breaking WSOP Online Main Event in 2020, and the subsequent successful WSOP partnership, GGPoker could justifiably claim the global top spot.

GGPoker and Dusk Till Dawn: Perfect Partners

The latest partnership sees GGPoker join forces with a mighty name in UK poker, namely premier live venue Dusk Till Dawn to sponsor the £500,000 United Kingdom Poker Championships (UKPC) Main Event. As a juicy bonus, there’ll be over £50,000 in added prizes for all players qualifying for the £560 buy-in tournament at GGPoker!

Note that the event is scheduled to run online at GGPoker from January 7, and live at Dusk Till Dawn (Nottingham) from January 11.

Qualify for the UKPC Main Event at GGPoker

Not surprisingly, given this is GGPoker, there’s more than one qualifying route, and all kinds of bankroll are catered for.

UKPC. Daily dollar.

Already underway are UKPC Daily Dollar Qualifiers, with a UKPC Main Event seat up for grabs every day for a $1 buy-in! In fact, a total of 60 coveted tickets will be awarded via the Daily Dollar Qualifiers.

UKPC. Weekly $80 buy-in.

From October 26 you can also play in UKPC Weekly $80 Super Satellites every Wednesday, with EIGHT seats guaranteed each week. Meanwhile, keep your eyes peeled over the coming weeks for additional qualifying options.

And there’s more: all GGPoker players who qualify for the UKPC Main Event will earn free entry to an exclusive UKPC Aftermath £25K Freeroll.

Play at Home With GGPoker

All GGPoker qualifiers to the UKPC Main Event will play their preferred online Day 1 at GGPoker on either Saturday, January 7 or Thursday, January 12, with the top 20% going on to play the live Day 2 at Dusk till Dawn. Players can also buy directly into the UKPC Main Event Day 1s hosted at GGPoker.

“GGPoker is thrilled to partner with Dusk Till Dawn and ensure our players now have an opportunity of winning their way into the UKPC Main Event, one of the highlights of the UK’s poker year,” said Angela Martin, UK & Ireland Head of Marketing at GGPoker. “There’s at least £500,000 to be won, and with satellites from $1, we hope to see some players turn a tiny online buy-in into a huge live score at the UKPC!”
